This paper reports on a comparison of undergraduate and postgraduate students' experience in using TWiki, a knowledge management enabling tool to co-construct group project work. It examines the following areas: (1) whether TWiki helps improve students' level of collaboration and the quality of their group project work; (2) whether TWiki facilitates knowledge creation and sharing; and (3) whether using TWiki is better or worse than, or as good as the traditional ways of doing group projects, such as using Microsoft Word. Results indicate that both groups of students had positive experience in using TWiki to do their group project and they found TWiki better than Microsoft Word for doing group project work.
